Setting Options for Deletion
184
Custom deletion schedule: To take advantage of the improved process and lessen the load on
the Interplay Engine, you need to set a custom schedule with one or more time spans. Scheduling
a deletion time span results in a faster initial deletion operation and less impact on other
Interplay Engine operations. You set a custom time span in the Interplay Administrator.
Additional options are also available. See “Scheduling the Deletion of Database Assets” on
page 187
.
Scheduled deletion works similarly on the Interplay Archive Engine. On the Interplay Archive
Engine, media is flagged for deletion, but the deletion itself takes place through the third-party
archive system.
Changes to the Orphan Clips Folder
c
The function of the Orphan Clips folder and the status of its contents changed in Interplay
v2.4.
Previously the Orphan Clips folder contained links for assets deleted or removed from Interplay
folders that still referenced media files on shared storage (“classic” orphan clips). Now, in
addition to these links, the Orphan Clips folder also contains links for assets whose database
assets are scheduled for deletion, whether or not the assets have online media.
n
If your deletion time span is set for the default 24-hour period, you might not see links for assets
scheduled for deletion in the Orphan Clips folder, because the database assets are deleted
immediately after the interactive part of the deletion.
You can distinguish links that have online media from links that do not have online media by
displaying the Media Status column. A red icon indicates media offline. Double-click the
column head to sort by the values of the column.
